I am in the process of building a dynamically resizing image gallery for the ipad. I have an unordered list that is comprised of several thumbnail images along with a short description.

Eventually I am going to incorporate slide capabilities so the user can swipe left to right through the image gallery, because of this feature I need the extra images that don't fit within the view port to expand the unordered list to the right. The problem is I can not get the unordered list to expand horizontally, it will only expand vertically even though I have explicitly set a max height (using javascript).
